Parole Granted For ‘Rust’ Armorer, Hannah Gutierrez-Reed Must Stay Away From Halyna Hutchins’ Family
Serving 85% of her involuntary manslaughter sentence, Rust armorer Hannah Gutierrez-Reed was let out on parole on Friday, but her time isn't really done
The one person who actually went to prison for the 2021 shooting death of Rust cinematographer Halyna Hutchins is free just weeks after the tragedy suffused Alec Baldwin starring indie Western premiered and then promptly disappeared in a cloud of box office dust earlier this month. Having served the state statute required 85% of her 18-month sentence and received extra marks for good behavior and the completion of a drug rehab program, records show Gutierrez-Reed having signed out of the Western New Mexico Correctional Facility on Friday morning. In a production under intense budget and time crunches, and film crews quitting, those live rounds got into Baldwin’s 1880s Colt .45 replica that that fired during rehearsals on the Bonanza Creek set, striking Hutchins and director Joel Souza.
